This beautiful piece is the ultimate carving board for roast meats and poultry. It's crafted of solid North American hard rock maple, with extra-deep wells to catch flavorful juices. Spouts simplify pouring the juices into a saucepan or bowl. A grip around the perimeter makes the board easy to lift and carry. Crafted in the USA from sustainably harvested North American hard rock maple. Edge-grain construction is gentle on knives - and stands up to years of slicing and chopping. Flip the board over and use the flat side for presenting cheeses or appetizers. Made by John Boos & Co., the leading manufacturer of butcher blocks and respected in the commercial cooking industry since 1887.

Very nice, but cracked almost immediately

January 7, 2015

I bought this as a gift for my husband. We'd purchased less expensive carving boards before at other retailers and had them crack very quickly, just from regular light washing. I also got food-grade mineral oil and a beeswax-based protectant. We oiled the wood several times and did several coats of protectant, and have been very careful when washing it not to get it too wet, and to dry it immediately. Unfortunately, after only a couple of weeks of use, it's cracking. I am so disappointed and feel like I wasted a lot of money.

Pros: Easy to Use

Cons: Quality, Difficult to Clean, High-Maintenance

Excellent board (but heavy)

June 7, 2014

I purchased this board 2 1/2 years ago. It is a show piece and well constructed. You must either have a very large counter to keep it out or large storage. Not sure why the other reviewers were surprised at the size 24x18 is 24x18 and that size board is very heavy since it is solid maple. People do comment on the size of the board because it is big. That said, I purchased with the intention of using it for big meals (Thanksgiving turkey, large gatherings etc) because it holds a lot of food. You do need to follow the instructions to oil periodically, but that has nothing to do with how the product is made, but the fact that you are purchasing solid maple. My board has not split and looks as good as the day I first purchased it. I use it 4-5 times a year and store it the rest of the year. Also, because of the size it is difficult to clean. But, I am 100% happy.

I'm angry that WS even sold this to my father-in-law and that he had to carry this monstrosity to his car. (Actually asked another customer to help him.) It weighs a ton, is difficult to store and, after about 5 to 7 uses (cause I hate it) the wood has already split, and now it drips juice all over the counter. I have no choice but to throw it out, and it was an expensive gift.

Although great to look at, this board is way too heavy for everyday use. I am looking for a board that has a drain well for roasts for any day of the week. This board is good for the holidays. I returned it.
